Our Background
More than a decade ago Spotinst’s founders took their first steps as young programmers in MAMRAM, the elite technology Infrastructure unit of the Israel Defense Forces (“IDF”). They served in key positions related to Linux Kernel and RDBMS platforms. They were in charge of the IDF’s “nerve center”, which runs the entire military’s data-centers and virtualization systems.
After their discharge from the IDF, Spotinst’s founders joined leading companies in the computing industry, managing DevOps, and Software engineering programs, while building and maintaining large-scale cloud architectures.
Simultaneously, the Spotinst team members received computer science degrees from Israel’s top universities, while working under senior technology executives of Israel’s leading high tech companies. This team of computer experts decided to dedicate their final project to the field of data-center efficiencies and Amazon Spot Instances utilization.
As part of their academic research, the Spotinst team members reached out to pioneering professors who already had breakthrough insights to fully leverage the cloud’s high availability and scalability capabilities. Not by chance, they were awarded First Place in their final academic project.
Since then, Spotinst’s team has been busy helping customers save up to 90% on their computing costs – from Web Applications, Containers, scientific computing, rendering, financial simulation, Hadoop, Spark, caching tiers and more.
Our vision is to revolutionize the way DevOps and R&D teams consume cloud computing. It doesn’t matter if your infrastructure runs on Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure or even a VMware on a private cloud. Spotinst provides the optimal framework for compute provisioning and cost-effective utilization.
Our Mission Statement: To optimize and automate every workload on every cloud.
